True Eyes Part I
“Why are you giving this to me?” Mane was excited to hear her words. He became a wielder because he needed the strength to protect his family. But like every other being blessed with intelligence that was above average, Mane sought to study everything the world had to offer. From the very first day he had learned about scholars, Mane had set it as his goal to become one. Yet he didn’t have the material to embark upon this unique path. Now he did.
“Don’t worry. I am not going to ask you to take me as your master. You can consider it a gift- a first meeting gift.” Ananse’s pleasant voice assured Mane that she didn’t want anything from him. She knew what the boy was weary of. He was smart- people didn’t give anything for free. He needed reassurance that she wouldn’t ask anything of him after giving him the manual.
“Besides, if I hadn’t given it to

Mane would have been surprised to find out that she even knew about his masters. Although Mane had promised that he wouldn’t inform anyone about their meeting, his masters weren’t dumb. The storage orb would be kept in Mane’s mind scape- a realm they had established themselves in. Although most of the masters didn’t know about her, one of them did. He would be able to smell her aura from the orb. Although she could dull the senses of most, this master was in a mind scape. It was a domain outside her control and only under the authority of the owner- Mane. She couldn’t wipe her aura from the orb either, for doing so will tamper with it. So the only option was to let Mane absorb all the knowledge here. That way, he wouldn’t have to take the orb with him. After a minute, the struggling boy finally calmed down. The pain that held him prisoner was gone, and all the information had been transferred. He opened his eyes after a while.

There was no mirror in this strange space; everything was white and bright, with no other color sharing in their radiance. Mane didn’t have anything he could use to check his reflection. There was no way he’d be able to see what they saw. Besides, the changes in his eyes had disappeared; they were back to normal now.“Have you ever heard the myth of the True Eyes?” Ananse asked. After Mane’s eyes returned to their normal color, Indra was finally able to pull himself out of his dazed state. He stood on the side and allowed Ananse to have her chat with Mane.“No, I haven’t. Do you care to enlighten me” Mane politely requested. “Since I asked you about it, I would naturally be willing to tell you about it.” Ananse nodded. She waved her hand, a movement that led to the appearance of three spotlessly white chairs in the already plain space. It was an action that
Hunters: The Prequel History Lesson Part II
It wasn’t the same as being a god. Every god clan had its own stories about its origins and their vast history. And in all of their tales, almost none of them started out as humans. Even the primordial gods had different shapes and structures. It was only after several millions of years that gods had evolved to possess human bodies. It was impossible for them to accept that something that had happened to them after millions of years, had just appeared out of thin air in the form of an origin divine artefact. Indra was certain that if the other gods were to hear about this, most would lean towards the theory of the Absolute Ruler, rather than believe that this artefact occurred naturally. Their pride wouldn’t allow it.“I think you should continue your story.” Mane reminded. Ananse didn’t refute his statement, only nodding her head and doing as she was told. “As I mentioned earlier, this king was human- in

“He did choose successors in the end, but they weren’t origin divine artefacts. It was this decision- the decision not to choose a successor from his own people- that led to the Great War of Order and Chaos” Ananse finished.Mane could pretty much guess what happened next. The Origin King was powerful. His power over the space-time law made him invincible, allowing no one to question his wisdom and authority. Because of the King’s great power, his subjects were obedient during his reign. There was peace. So even polar opposites like the Book of Order and the Flames of Chaos were kept silent due to the King’s presence.Once this deterring factor was gone these natural enemies went after each other’s throats. Although they were generals under the reign of the King, they only got along because of the Origin King. Since origin divine artefacts can live forever, they never considered i

“Eternals are a race of immortals. Unlike other races, they are born with an insane amount of vitality, making it possible for them to live forever, even without any power to rely on.” Indra answered. Although he thought it strange that the Supreme didn’t know about Eternals, he didn’t mind answering the question. Besides, with how knowledgeable Mane was about other matters, the only reason he wouldn’t know about Eternals was if someone was preventing him from gaining access to that information. But Indra didn’t believe in hiding the truth from Mane. And he reckoned that Ananse didn’t mind his words either. If she did, with her powers as a scholar, she would have taken his words out of his mind before he could even speak.“Indra is right. Eternals are such a race. Normally they are weak. But when a Supreme appears, they grow very strong.” Ananse added. Mane was fascinated by what he was

And listening to Ananse right now, Mane knew it was because his True Eyes hadn’t truly awakened. When they did, he would become a genius time wielder.“I’m going to assume that you are telling me this so that I can prepare myself, aren’t you?” Mane squinted his eyes and questioned the goddess before him.Ananse only smiled in response. “Prepare you for what?” Indra asked as he flicked his hair.“You only mentioned the first users of this powerful eye bloodline, but you didn’t speak of the next few who wielded this power. So I am certain of a few things. The eyes do not truly belong to those who inherit it. And two, all those who got their hands on them are dead.”Ananse smiled faintly upon hearing his words, a smile that only Mane could see. Indra didn’t have such a privilege. She didn’t deny or

There was another reason behind Mane’s understanding, which was his very own experience when he was just 6 years old. It was the first time that Mane had been sucked into a whirlpool of bloodlust. When he was just 6, he had unleashed his aura on his class teacher at the time, Mr. Aikens. He had lost himself in the darkness of rage, and was only pulled out through the combined efforts of the 3rd and the 8th. It was at that time that he learned of the god known as Cronos. This god had control over the laws of time. This was a god who was bound to laws of time. His connection with this law was so great that the clock of eternity, a divine artefact, bound to him on its own. Although it wasn’t an origin divine artefact, the clock of eternity was a powerful tool. For it to choose a master meant that it had to submit to that master. And Cronos was the only one in history, to have made such a mark. His masters informed him that his plight

“This…?” Mane stuttered in disbelief. How was it possible for him to breakthrough so easily? He just said a few things and his strength had already grown by such a large amount.“Surprised?” Ananse smirked playfully. Mane was stunned for a while looking at her grin. She was very charming indeed. He shook his head and asked, “How did I breakthrough so quickly? Even for me this is too fast”.Indra looked at the two- goddess and godling suspiciously. Before, their figures were blurry and their voices unheard. But he could see them just fine now, and he could hear their voices clearly enough. He could feel that Mane had changed, but he couldn’t pinpoint the reason for the change. It wasn’t surprising that he couldn’t. Scholars were able to cloud the senses of most, so even when they broke through it was still impossible to read through their energy signature.
